TO THK PURCHASERS OP 

WATSON'S NEW MAP OF THE UNITED STATES. 



It has been our object in preparing this little manual, to famish 
all without additional cost to yon, thongh at heavy expense to ourselves, 
those general Htatistics which are likely to be wanted by a map purchaser. 
Wt think that W9 have succeeded in giving you the most valuable collection 
ever mado in any moderate compass, and shall be greatly disappointed, if 
this does not largely increase the demand for our beautiful map. If the 
purchasers are satisfied with our effort to give them their money's worth, 
wo shall be thoroughly content.

12 THE GENERAL GOVERNMENT 



THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT. 

The National Legislature consists of a Senate of two members from 
each State, making the full Senate now consist of seventy-four members, 
and a House of Representatives, now having two hundred and forty-five 
members. The Senators are chosen by the Legislatures of their several 
States, for a term of six years, either by concurrent vote or by joint ballot, 
as the State may prescribe. The members of the House of Representa- 
tives are usually elected by a plurality vote in districts of each State, 
whose bounds are prescribed by the Legislature, for the term of two years. 
In a few instances they have been elected at large : i. e., by the plurality 
vote of the entire State. 

The Constitution requires nine years' citizenship to qualify for admis- 
sion to the Senate, and seven years to the House of Representatives. 
An act approved July 26, 1S66, requires the Legislature of each State 
which shall be chosen next preceding the expiration of any Senatorial 
term, on the second Tuesday after its first meeting, to elect a successor, 
each House nominating viva voce, and then convening in Joint Assembly 
to compare nominations. In case of agreement, such person shall be 
declared duly elected; and if they do not agree, then balloting to continue 
from day to day at 12 M. during the session until choice has been made. 
Vacancies are to be filled in like manner. The members of each House 
receive a salary of $5,000 per annum, and mileage at the rate of 
twenty cents per mile. For each day's absence, except when caused by 
sickness, $S per diem is deducted from the salary. The President pro tern. 
oftho Senate receives the same compensation as the Vice-President. 
The Speaker of the House of Representatives receives double the salary 
of a member. 

CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS. 

The House of Representatives of the United States is composed of 
members elected by Districts. The number apportioned to the States has 
varied at each decennial census, as shown by the following Table :

In the new apportionment for 1870, the basis of representation will 
probably be about one Congressman to every 155,000 of the population.

IMMIGRATION. 



IMMIGRATION FROM 1820 to 1871. 

By an Act of Congress, approved March 2, 1819, Collectors of 
Customs were required to keep a record, and make a quarterly return to 
the Treasury of all passengers arriving in their respective districts from 
Foreign Ports ; and these reports, duly condensed in the Department, are 
the chief bases of our knowledge of the subsequent growth and progress 
of Immigration. Total number of foreign-born passengers arriving at 
the ports of the United States in the several years from 1820 to 1871 
inclusive, are as follows :

THE LAW, THE INSTRUCTIONS. AND THE BLANK FOR APPLICATIONS. 



Department of the Interior, \ 
General Land Office, Aug. 8, 1870. S 

Gentlemen: — The following is the twenty-fifth section of the act 
of Congress, approved July 15, 1870, entitled " An act making appropri- 
ations for the support of the army for the year ending June 30, 1871, and 
for other purposes," viz. : 

Sec. 25. — And be it further enacted, That every private soldier and 
officer who has served in the army of the United States during the rebel- 
lion, for ninety days, and remained loyal to the Government, and every 
seaman, marine, and officer or other person who has served in the navy 
of the United States, or in the marine corps or revenue marine during 
the rebellion, for ninety days, and remained loyal to the Government, 
shall, on payment of the fee or commission to any Register or Receiver of 
any Land Office required by law, be entitled to enter one quarter section 
of land, not mineral, of the alternate reserved sections of public lands 
along the lines of any railroads or other public works in the United States, 
wherever public lands have been or may be granted by acts of Congress, 
and to receive a patent therefor under and by virtue of the provisions of 
the act to secure homesteads to actual settlers on the public domain, and 
the acts amendatory thereof, and on the terms and conditions therein pre- 
scribed; and all the provisions of said acts, except as herein modified, 
shall extend and be applicable to entries under this act, and the Commis- 
sioner of the General' Land Office is hereby authorized to prescribe the 
necessary rules and regulations to carry this section into effect, and deter- 
mine all facts necessary thereto. 

By these provisions the Homestead Law of 20th May, 1862, and the 
acts amendatory thereof, are so modified as to allow entries to be made by 
the parties mentioned therein, of the maximum quantity of one quarter- 
section, or 160 acres of land, held at the double minimum price of $2.50 
per acre, instead of one-half quarter-section, or eighty acres as heretofore. 



HOMESTEAD FOB SOLDIERS gfl 

In case of a party desiring to avail himself thereof, you will require 
him to file the usual homestead application for the tract desired, if legally 
liable to entry, to make affidavit according to the form hereto annexed, 
instead of the usual homestead affidavit, and on doing so allow him to 
make payment of the $10 fee stipulated in the act of 20th May, 1862. 
and the usual commissions on the price of the land at $2.50 per acre, the 
entry to be regularly numbered and reported to this office in your monthly 
homestead returns. 

Regarding settlement and cultivation, the requirements of the law in 
this class of entries are the same as in other homestead entries. 

Very respectfully your obedient servant, 

Joseph S. Wilson, 
Commissioner, Register, and Receiver.

EDUCATIONAL STATISTICS. 



THE Public School statistics of the Unit/ed States require a volume 
of themselves for their complete elucidation. We can only give aggre- 
gates of the most important items. 

The number of children of school-age in 30 of the 37 States, in 1870, 
was 10,467,189. The number enrolled in 31 of the 37 States was 6,751,- 
341. The average attendance in 24 out of 37 States, was 3,414,362. 
The number of schools in 29 States was 117,950. Nine States reported 
320,000 children in private schools. In 30 States there were 181,574 
teachers employed in the public schools; of these, 63,815 were male 
teachers, and 118,056 female teachers. Nevada paid the highest average 
salaries to both her male and female teachers, giving the former an av- 
erage of $1 1S.75 per month, and the latter $92.16, both in gold. North 
Carolina paid the smallest average to her male teachers — $20.50 per 
month — out of which they were required to pay $12, or thereabouts, for 
board. Maine paid the lowest wages to female teachers — $14 per month 
— though as this was in addition to the board, it was probably in reality 
higher than North Carolina or some of the other States. 

In 25 States — all that reported — the average wages of male teachers 
were $51 per month, and of female teachers $33.12 per month. 

The total annual income of the public schools in 31 States — embrac- 
ing all except Georgia, Mississippi, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas, and 
Virginia, was nearly sixty-two millions of dollars. Of this immense sum, 
thirty-nine millions was raiged in 24 States by taxation, nearly three mil- 
lions was interest on permanent funds, and the remainder was derived 
from the sale of lands, rate-bills, and other Rources. 

The expenditures are divided into two classes, the one of current, the 
other of incidental expenditures. Under the first class come teachers' 
wages, fuel, &c. Under the second, the cost of sites, buildings, repairs, 
libraries, apparatus, and other objects. 

The amount paid for teachers' wages in 22 States, in 1870, was 
S28,525,011.S6. For fuel and insurance in 17 States, $4,567,307.97 was 
paid. In 25 States, $34,871,183.99 was paid for buildings, sites, and 
repairs, lull State*, $424,000 was expended for libraries and appara- 
tus. 

The entire expenditure, reported from 30 States, is $58,018,371.48. 
Twenty-three States only report their school fund and its condition. Ttx? 
aggregate school funds of these States amount to $45,823,019,99. Sev-

in bounds to estimate the present value of the school funds of all the 
States as not less than 805,000,000.

Cf scientific and professional schools in the United States, there are 
ninety-three Theological Seminaries having 384 instructors, and about 
3,G00 students ; twenty-eight Law Schools, with 100 professors and about 
1,800 students ; fifty-nine Regular Medical Schools, with 440 or more pro- 
fessors, and about 7,000 students; five Eclectic Medical Schools, with 
about 35 professors and 325 students ; one Physio-Medical or Botanic 
School, with G professors and 42 students; seven Homoeopathic, .with C> 
professors and nearly 400 students; six Dental Colleges, with 39 profes- 
sors and about 250 students; nineteen Pliurinucculicul Societies and Col- 
leges, with about 40 professors and perhaps GOO students. There arc also 
eighty-two Normal Schools for the training of teachers, with about 230 
teachers, and not far from 10,000 students; twenty-six Agricultural 
and Scientific Schools, antl several others about to open, all largely en- 
dowed, and with about 200 professors and at least 2,000 students. 

There are, moreover, 20 or more commercial or business colleges, 
giving a limited course of instruction generally only in topics relating to 
business. These have over 120 teachers and about 5,000 students. 

There are 3G institutions for the instruction and training cf deaf 
mutes, 22 for the blind, and 7 for the idiotic. 

Of special schools and means cf instruction, beside the Military Aca- 
demy at West Point and the Naval Academy at Annapolis, there are very 
many. Most of our larger cities have one or more, many of them two or 
three Schools cf Art, Academies cf Design, and Schools cf Instruction 
in Wood Engraving, Tree Drawing, Water-color Painting, Architectural 
Drawing, and Sketching and Modeling from nature and life. Some of

them, like the Cooper Union in New York, the Peabody Institute at Bal- 
timore, and the Stevens Institute at Ilohoken, are magnificent foundations, 
and famish opportunity for the highest free education in art matters. 
There arc also numerous schools cf higher instruction in music, with em- 
inent teachers and a large attendance. 

Speeial schools I'or instruction in navigation, surveying, mining, 
metallurgy, chemistry, and civil engineering are also becoming numerous. 

Most of the Mercantile Library Associations have classes for the in- 
struction of their members in modern language, mechanics, higher mathe- 
matics, etc., and many of the Young Men's Christian Associations have 
also established such classes. 

There are 308 of the Young Men's Christian Associations, with an 
aggregate of about 53,000 members, and more than three-fourths of them 
have libraries, some of them of considerable size. 

Aside from these, and from the college libraries, there arc 1G1 Pub- 
lic Libraries in the United States, containing from 1,200 to 190,000 vol- 
umes in each. The largest of these are the Library cf Congress, 100,000 
volumes ; the Boston Public City Library, about 110,000; the Astor Li- 
brary, in New York, of about the same size; the Boston Athenaeum, over 
100,000; the Mercantile Library, in New-York City, about 120,030; 
the Philadelphia Library Company, about 85,000 ; the New York State 
Library, at Albany, nearly 80,000. 

EXPENSES PER HEAD OF THE STATES FOR SCHOOL PURPOSES. 

The United States Commissioner gives some very interesting figures 
in regard to the annual expenditure in each State, for each child cf school 
age. In the list Nevada stands first, California third, and Connecticut 
fourth, lint in Nevada and California, a large proportion cf the expense 
is caused by the erection cf new school-houses, ^o that the table gives 
these States a better standing than they are entitled to. Excluding these 
two, and Massachusetts stands first and Connecticut second. 

The following is the table showing the expenditure per head of the 
school population, excepting seven States.

The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President 
shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole 
number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then

[An article intended as a thirteenth amendment to the Constitu- 
tion was proposed at the Second Session of the Eleventh Congress, but 
was not ratified by a sufficient number of States to become valid as a 
part of the Constitution. It is erroneously given in an edition of the 
Laws of the United States, published by Bioren and Duane in 1815. | 

[Note. — The eleventh article of the amendments to the Constitution 
was proposed at the Second Session of the Third Congress ; the twelfth 
article, at the First Session of the Eighth Congress ; and the thirteenth 
article at the Second Session of the Eleventh Congress.]

and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States, 
and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce 
any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of 
the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, 
or property, without, due process of law, nor deny to any person within 
its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. 

Sec. 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among the several 
States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number 
of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the 
right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and

ture thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being 
twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way 
abridged, except for participation in rebellion or other crime, the basis of

gress, or elector of President *?ftid Vice-President, or hold any office, civil

previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the 
United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an execu- 
tive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the

not be denied or abridged by the United States, or by any State, on

THE NEW YORK EVANGELIST 

Wl.o pays for one year in advance. 

This Map is invaluable to Ministers, Elders, and to every intelligent Lay- 
man, as it shows at a glance the vast extent and geographical divisions of the 
Presbyterian Church in the United States, as fixed at the Reunion ; giving 
the boundaries of every Synod and every Presbytery from the Atlantic to the 
Pacific ; with the cities and larger towns where there are Presbyterian churches, 
thus making a grand 

CHART OIF THE CHURCH. 

The New York Evangelist has long ranked as one of the very best — as it is 
one of the oldest — religious newspapers in the country. Established in the 
city of New York more than forty years ago — in 1830 — expressly to promote 
REVIVALS, and MISSIONS, TEMPERANCE, and other reforms, it has ever 
been faithful to its original purpose. For thirty years that the Presbyterian 
Church was divided, it was the earnest advocate of the New School, and did 
much to help that body in its low estate, when shattered and disorganized by 
the Division, and to bring it into that degree of organization and order which 
made it one of the most efficient religious bodies in the land. It was among 
the first to favor Reunion ; while others were cold and indifferent, or positively 
hostile, it labored for it unceasingly for years, until it was accomplished. 
Since that great and happy event, its object has been to consolidate and 
strengthen the Church more and more. 

While The Evangelist aims by its News and the Variety of its Depart- 
ments — Literary, Scientific, Agricultural, and Domestic — to be A COMPLETE 
FAMILY NEWSPAPER, its chief distinction is the great fulness of its Ec- 
clesiastical Intelligence, giving the news of the Churches, of the Settlement 
and Dismission of Ministers, and all that concerns the Church at home and 
abroad. It has recently added a special DEPARTMENT FOR SUNDAY 
SCHOOLS, furnishing a Weekly Series of Lessons on the Uniform National 
Questions for 1872. 

Among its contributors are the most distinguished Ministers and Theolo- 
gical Professors in the Presbyterian Church. The Rev. Theodore L. Cuyler 
writes almost every week. 

TERMS : $3.00 a year, in advance.
